My Life
I have reached the stage of my life
When everything is wearing out,
Breaking down,
Needing repair or replacement.
I am certain I wouldn’t have tripped
And broken my wrists
On separate occasions
Had my knees been ‘fixed’ at the start.
“…when the time comes,” said the Orthopod
On 9/11/2001
(an unforgettable date).
Now, after two painful reminders,
I accept ‘the time has come’
For me to do what must be done.

Nov/Dec? Not sure exactly – lots to arrange beforehand. Then around the same time next year. Definitely want to do it in warm weather!

Thanks, Sidey, that’s the end of my griping I promise you… I have been very lucky with my health up til now and am grateful. This may seem like a mountain, but when it’s behind it will seem like a pimple. 😀
